Why Patients Travel to Dr. Saadat for Spine Surgery
Dr. Saadat is a board-certified, Harvard- and Emory-trained orthopaedic spine surgeon and an Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His areas of focus include disc replacement and motion-preserving surgery, minimally invasive microscopic decompression of the cervical and lumbar spine, minimally invasive spinal fusions (XLIF and ALIF), and complex revision spine surgery. You can read more about his treatment philosophy, which centers on explaining every option, including non-surgical ones, before recommending surgery.
Traveling for spine surgery takes planning, and our team handles the details. Out-of-state and international patients start with a case review meeting with Dr. Saadat to go over their history and imaging, and scans can be uploaded ahead of time through our secure online portal.
If surgery is the right next step, we coordinate a formal in-person consultation at our Los Angeles office, arrange any updated imaging during that visit, and help with travel needs like accommodations and flights. Many procedures are performed at a surgical center, so many patients do not need a hospital stay. Dr. Saadat personally calls you or your family after surgery and is present at each follow-up visit. See everything included in our concierge spine care.
If you want an opinion before deciding on surgery, a Virtual Second Opinion is available to patients across the country. Out-of-state and international patients can also read how to plan a visit.
